I have returned this jacket as I am not satitisfied with it. I was expecting a flexable fleece and this is more like a jacket one could purchase anywhere. The logo on the back shoulder is overkill and it adds nothing positive to the jacket.

This is the only jacket I found made by North Face that would fit me in small. The fit is not big like other models. It's a light jacket suitable for spring/fall weather. Moderate warmth and not rain proof. Not a bad jacket.

Only in the front, where the mesh is part of the hand pockets. The mesh lets your body heat warm your hands, or allows you to vent a bit by opening the pockets to let in some fresh air. The rest of the jacket, like most fleece jackets, does not have a separate liner.
